Hey everyone,
OK, to come out of the closet right away, I am a nerd. An engineer that loves for things to be organized, and I am wondering how the heck to organize my pellet collection.
I only have guns in two calibers (so far) 0.177 and 0.22, so I thought that this would make my life simple. I realized pretty quick that this wasn't the case, so I put all of the projectiles that I have into Excel to help keep track of them. This is great as I know what I have, but now the trick is finding them on my shelves. I have two shelves (one for 0.177 and one for 0.22), but they are horizontal and so I can't read what I have. I am thinking about organizing them by type (pointed, hunting, or diabolo) and then by weight on the shelves I have so that it will make it easier to look, but I wondered if someone had some revolutionary idea that I just hadn't thought about, like a tackle box or something. I have almost 50 different types of pellets in each caliber (so about 100 different types total right now) with multiple tins of each in many cases.
Thanks for the insight. It would be great if someone as geeky as me has already come up with a legendary solution to this problem.
Thanks again!
Jonathan
